This week’s episode is the second in an ongoing series focusing on recent efforts by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to update 42 C.F.R. Part 2 (Part 2) regulations related to the confidentiality of substance use disorder treatment records in light of challenges posed by the opioid epidemic. In this episode, Gina Bertolini and Steve Pine discuss SAMHSA’s recent proposed rule that seeks to modernize Part 2 by aligning the regulations with recent advances in the delivery of health care, while retaining important privacy protections for individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs).
